Getting It Right: Crafting Outreaches & Collaborations that Get Noticed and Make an Impact

Entrepreneurs, authors, coaches, consultants, wellness practitioners or any business change-makers, whether just starting out or scaling up, can get stuck in their creative caves — frustrated with slow growth and lack of inspiration. You can have all the big ideas imaginable, but if you can’t connect with the right influencers or get your work into the world...it goes nowhere. We all need community.

One of the most effective strategies to dramatically grow your business (and mindset) is collaboration. However, discerning the right kinds of collaborations — and collaborators — is key. And there are many more than you may have imagined.

Once you understand the powerful merits of collaborations — you have to land them. There is an art to the ASK (and you only have seconds to get noticed).

Get it right: Your connections convert into successful collaborations and your work gets where it needs to go — which exponentially increases your audience, your influence and your revenue.

Get it wrong: You risk landing in the delete box unnoticed — or worse, damaging your relationships and reputation (not to mention your mojo).

The Art of the Ask is about holistic, heart-centered growth and expansion: relationship building, content maximization, effective communication — and staying power! It's about bringing your whole self to the party.

Hi, I'm Kristen Noel

Editor-In-Chief and Co-Founder of Best Self Media

When I set out to create Best Self Media, and our flagship Best Self Magazine, I had no existing business, zero contacts, and no mortal idea what I was doing. 

What I did have was an entrepreneurial dream, to create a leading platform for helping others overcome their life obstacles and achieve the change they desire in their lives. 

And you know what? I've done that. With some guts, hard-won lessons, effective outreaches and vision — I've built a thriving business out of collaborations with other influencers.

Today, I co-create with the world's leading wellness rockstars, including Marianne Williamson, Kris Carr, Brendon Burchard, Mike Dooley and Dr. Christiane Northrup. We impact over 70,000 people each month with tools and inspiration to help them live their most vibrant lives.

With dozens of in-person interviews and hundreds of varied collaborations to draw upon, I created The Art of the Ask online course to help entrepreneurs and change-makers get noticed and leverage the incredible power of collaborations to dramatically grow their business and influence. I'll share the info I wish I had known while starting out so you can avoid mistakes, land your outreaches and skip to the head of the class. And I've got a proven system to get you there!
